A master gunsmith. A war that changes everything. Can one young man forge his own destiny in the fires of revolution?

From the author of the smash-hit bestselling Sunlit Silence Series of WWII in the Air comes Frank A. Mason’s award-winning Journeyman Chronicles, an unforgettable historical adventure set in the turbulent years of the American Revolution.

Will Yelverton is just nineteen, a skilled gunsmith with dreams of setting up his own shop on the Tennessee frontier. But when war erupts in the colonies, his future shatters. Drafted as the armorer for the North Carolina Militia, Will marches to the Battle of Moore’s Creek Bridge, where friend turns against friend in a bloody clash that will shape the fate of a nation.
As war spreads, Will is drawn deeper into the conflict. A journey to Pennsylvania for gun parts leads him straight into the chaos of the Battle of Brandywine Creek. Trapped in occupied Philadelphia, surrounded by enemy forces, Will must make a daring escape before the noose tightens around him. Along the way, he crosses paths with legends: Governor Richard Caswell, British Major Banastre Tarleton, and even General George Washington himself.

With his faithful horse, Molly, and a cast of unforgettable allies, including Jack, a freedman who has been his closest friend since childhood, Will fights to survive in a world where loyalty is tested and the cost of freedom is paid in blood. Even as war rages, two women linger in his thoughts: Martha Black and Abigail Kennedy, each pulling him in a different direction, forcing him to question where his heart truly lies.

War is unforgiving. Every choice he makes comes with consequences. And as he’s swept from battle to battle, Will must decide: Is he fighting for a cause, or just trying to stay alive?

Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell’s The Last Kingdom and Michael Shaara’s The Killer Angels, Journeyman: The Bridge is a gripping tale of war, survival, and the birth of a nation.
